For weeks now we’ve been pointing-out that Alex Jones’ excessive greed and appetite for money is so pronounced that it has become the number one priority on his radio show and pay-per-view website. In fact, his hard-sell buy buy buy advertising is so incessant that it is patterned directly after the government’s mind-control psychic-driving exercises (and that should erect red-flags for everyone).

Now we have first-hand, verifiable proof of how all-encompassing this drive for money is with Alex Jones and his wife Violet. What follows is an appalling tale of a man and wife who epitomize the biblical adage, “The love of money is the root of all evil.”

For three days in October, 2003, radio talk-show host Michael Corbin (whose program, A Closer Look, was carried at the time by GCN) appeared as a guest-host for Alex Jones. In case you don’t know, Jones’ show lasts three hours each day, so right off the bat there’s nine total hours. But the total amount of time that Corbin sacrificed was much greater.

Here’s what we mean. Even though our WING TV broadcasts are only about 25 minutes long each day, the total time it takes to get this show online is about five hours! Likewise, try to imagine how much time Michael Corbin had to spend preparing for these shows (i.e. news updates, booking guests, technical issues, etc). So, this original nine-hour time investment became more like 15-18 hours!

In addition, Michael Corbin received NO PAY for his guest-host appearances, and did it instead as a professional courtesy.

With this in mind, guess what gratitude he received for his efforts. Corbin told us during his June 8, 2005 appearance on WING TV (see transcript below) that during the third hour of his final day as guest host, he received a phone call from Violet Jones (Alex’s wife).

And what did she say to Corbin? Did she thank him for sacrificing 15-18 hours of his life – without pay – to host Alex’s show? No, Violet Jones chastised him because … get this … Alex’s video sales had fallen because he wasn’t pushing them hard enough!

Can you believe for even one second this woman’s audacity and ingratitude? What did she want Michael Corbin to do – turn each three-hour show into one big, long extended infomercial for Alex's products --- just like her husband? Then, when Corbin left a message for Jones voicing his displeasure, guess what happened? Alex didn’t return his call, nor did he even thank him! Corbin’s a professional broadcaster who was doing Jones a favor, and here’s what he gets --- yelled at by Alex’s wife because he wouldn’t be a snake-oil salesman for his videos, and then not even a thank you courtesy call from Jones.

You can read the entire transcript below, but before doing so we have one last thing to say: when it comes to low-lifes, there aren’t many people who are lower than the money-grubbing couple of Alex and Violet Jones --- you two should be absolutely ashamed of yourselves.

TRANSCRIPT: WING TV -- June 8, 2005

Lisa Guliani: You used to fill-in for Alex Jones. You did it a couple of times on his shows, correct?

Michael Corbin: Yes.

Lisa Guliani: Okay. Tell us a little bit about how that went for you and what happened afterward with Alex's wife - what she said to you.

Michael Corbin: Well, I used to be on the Genesis Communications Network and I was asked in October 2003 to fill in for him for three days, which I did. I got no pay for it, it was more a professional courtesy. And at the end of the third day, the last hour, Alex's wife chastised me because the video sales had dropped and she was upset because the sales had dropped. She didn't feel that I had pushed the videos hard enough. I was kind of disappointed because I did not get a "thank you" for filling in for Alex during that time.

Lisa Guliani: Really.

Victor Thorn: Not only didn't you get a "thank you," you got chastised.

Michael Corbin: Right.

Victor Thorn: You know, we've brought this up on our show before, and we've said that there's nothing wrong with selling products and making the public aware of them, but we said that on this show (Alex's), it's like psychic driving where they just pound it into your head.

Lisa Guliani: And you know what, Michael? His show is really long - for somebody to take that many hours out of their day to do a courtesy for someone else...

Victor Thorn: To get yelled at...

Lisa Guliani: Yeah.

Michael Corbin: Well, like I said - I was very disappointed in that, and again, I called Alex and didn't get a return phone call from him. I didn't get a "thank you" from him, and it was like I was disappointed because of what happened with that. But you know; the thing is that when I was on that network, I got a lot of e-mails and a lot of response from people when I did the fill-in for him. Of course, some people complained about his abrasive way of delivering his message, but you know, my response was always: that's Alex, that's his schtick.

Lisa Guliani: That's everybody's response (laughs).

Michael Corbin: We're supposed to be working for the same thing here.

Victor Thorn: But it seems like the money takes much more precedence on that show than on any other show we've ever heard on the Internet or in the alternative media. It just seems to be right at the forefront.

Michael Corbin: Well, I'm sure you guys are aware of it too in your venture and mine; you know we have to make money to try and keep the program going.

Lisa Guliani: Right.

Michael Corbin: Because all of us are not in the mainstream, and of course we can't get an AT&T or somebody like that.

Victor Thorn: Well, none of us are retiring tomorrow, that's for sure.

Michael Corbin: Exactly. You know, I think the thing is that we find working in the alternative media - we're not the favored sons and daughters of the country when it comes to the mainstream population and how they perceive us. My thing has always been: you struggle with this, and I'm happy to struggle. I've got a firm commitment with myself that I would never get involved in anything that would compromise the truth.

Victor & Lisa: Right! Good for you!

Michael Corbin: That's why it is so important, and even if we're struggling, which we all are, we are still somewhat effective in getting our message out.

Lisa Guliani: Let me ask you this, too. You don't work for GCN anymore, correct?

Michael Corbin: I never worked for them. My program has always been owned by me.

Lisa Guliani: Okay, I mean you don't do a show for them.

Michael Corbin: They were a distributor of my program.

Lisa Guliani: Okay.

Michael Corbin: But I'm not with them anymore, no.

Lisa Guliani: What's going on with your archives?

Michael Corbin: I'm sorry?

Lisa Guliani: Your GCN archives?

Michael Corbin: Oh yeah. Here's the deal. GCN was never allowed or authorized to sell archives of my show, A Closer Look. I discovered about four months ago, I got an e-mail from a listener who told me they had been listening to an archive from the month of July last year, and they had some questions. They indicated to me they had purchased a DVD from GCN for an entire month of my shows.

Lisa Guliani: What are they selling them for, Michael?

Michael Corbin: The guy told me that they were selling them - I think he said $30 or $40. I don't have the exact amount.

Victor Thorn: How much money did you make off of that?

Michael Corbin: Nothing. Now see, this is why I'm very disappointed in GCN and their behavior because even after I'm gone from the network, they're still making money off of my archives.

Lisa Guliani: So, they've been doing this how many months now?

Michael Corbin: I don't know because I turned this over to my attorney. He is dealing with them. He's sending them a cease-and-desist letter and demanding an accounting of everything they have sold of A Closer Look. The thing is, I find this very, very unprofessional; and it's wrong. I mean, anybody would know that they don't own my show. So they do not own the archives.

Victor Thorn: It sounds completely unethical.

Lisa Guliani: And illegal.

Michael Corbin: It shows what kind of mentality they have if they go cavalierly about selling the archives and not even reporting it to me.

Victor Thorn: Michael, that's what we brought up yesterday. We said, do you think that the mainstream media became this cesspool overnight? Well, it didn't. There were a lot of good people that turned their heads and didn't do anything as we went into this sewer; and we're trying to tell people that if we want to lose the alternative media, if we want it to become the same cesspool, than all we have to do is turn our heads and not say anything either.

Lisa Guliani: Right.

Michael Corbin: Absolutely.

Victor Thorn: It's so important because we don't HAVE anything else. If we lose this alternative media, there IS nothing else.

Michael Corbin: Victor, you're absolutely right. First of all, if we ever hope to succeed at getting the message out and gaining an audience, we have to have our integrity, we have to tell the truth, and we can't act like the people in the mainstream media.

Lisa Guliani: Thank you! Thank you!

Victor Thorn: We want everybody out there watching this show right now to give this guy a standing ovation because this is the kind of attitude we need. Michael, we wish we could keep you here for the next three days.

Lisa Guliani: Yeah, forever.

Victor Thorn: We just want to thank you. Again, everybody go out there to For a Closer Look. Its KHNC 1360 AM. The host is Michael Corbin, and this guy is FANTASTIC.

Lisa Guliani: Our hats are off to you, Michael. We love you.

Michael Corbin: Well, I tell you, same here to you guys because again, what you guys are doing is wonderful, and it's valuable, and it is very needed.
